RfR JDK-8134453,JAWS crashes in WindowsAccessBridge.DLL on 32 bit 8u60 running on 32 bit Win 7

Hello Pete,

While this may work, I would not like to rely on case insensitivity in 
the directory name for the headers. I would like that you also change 
legacy->LEGACY in CompileJavaClasses.gmk where the headers are generated.
